Overwind

Feel like an overwind toy...
physically and mentally.
Just like a thin piece of butter spread over too much...
Wearing thin...
Just another 48 hours...
Can I make it...
It is so tiring...

Cottesloe Beach

Got nothing on yesterday so decided to go to Fremantle for Fish and Chip brunch again. Bought the whole day train pass at AUD$8.40 instead of AUD$3.50 single trip because it will actually cost me AUD$7.00 for a to and fro trip.

Anyway, I got another agenda on my mind. I read again Cottesloe Beach on Lonely Planet and is really interested to check it out. I went to the beach and it is really breath-taking. Really beautiful but it is cloudy and windy. Only get a few shots before I left. Hope to be back here during the evening when the view is much nicer.

Claisebrook Cove

Was with Ian at Claisebrook Cove during his visit to Perth. We went to explore Claisebrook Cove one night before his departure trip back to Melbourne. Actually, I slip off halfway from work and went out with him. :P Sorry Bro, can't keep you accompany the whole day.

Anyway, we went to explore Claisebrook and the scenery is breath-taking but... I never bring my camera as I met Ian straight after work. I should have told him to bring my camera bag along. Well, this decision really comes back to haunt me later on.

I told myself that I will come back to Claisebrook to take some night shots. Since there is nothing on during the weekend, I decided to head out to Claisebrook to do my night shoot but alas... the weather have been really crappy as it is cloudy and rainy. Did not really get the shots I wanted. Hope to be able to go back again.

Depressed

Tiny as a seed, Beautiful Seed...
Grant me thy Grace, Patience and Determination to hang on...
Give me thy Mercy, give me thy strength...
I don't know how long can I hang on...
I don't know how long can I handle...
I can fight no more...

A Visit to Rottnest with an old friend, my buddy, my brother

Greetings from Perth again. Was assigned back here for another 3 weeks for work. Now is the winter season and it is rather cold.

I was very fortunate to have a surprise visit from an old friend, my buddy since Poly times, my brother Ian who came over from Melbourne to Perth for a visit during my stay here.

We planned for our activities to make the full use of the time when he was here over the weekend. First and foremost, we went to Femantle yesterday and have Kailis' Fish and Chips for lunch. Today, we went to Rottnest for a day tour.

Too bad that we did not know what to expect for this day trip, so very little planning was done for the moving around the island which was a mistake. There is no proper transport around Rottnest and to get around this big island, it will be better to cycle to get from places to places.

Even so, it never stop me from taking photos and sharing with all. Enjoy.
